Could be bad bushings on shocks or strut mounts, or broken shock, strut or sway bar. On a larger vehicle like a truck or older car it could be a broken leaf spring or coil. If I had to guess that's where I would start looking.

Im not 100% sure. but i have a 97 Monte Carlo. and i think i have isolated the sound to the gas tank expanding and contracting. it has a plastic gas tank, and the sound sounds similar to a plastic drum/barrel/container clunking from expanding/contracting.
